Yes, we’re taking a serious turn here, but the Manchester attack was horrifying.

But it’s also symptomatic of the toxic political climate we’re currently encountering from fundamentalist groups and many political leaders here in the US. Terrorism extends beyond a person’s religious ideology or skin color. It’s fed by ideologues, and based in hatred, fear, and bigotry. A desire not to honor the aesthetics of the past, but to go back to a time when only certain members of society had privileges. A desire to diminish people.

The compassion, kindness, love, strength and oneness that you’ve shown one another this past week is the exact opposite of the heinous intentions it must take to pull off something as evil as what happened Monday. YOU are the opposite.
